Rosa Parks

Book review
My Story; book review.
In this story by Rosa Parks she explains her life and what she went through being an african american woman in the 1950’s. Throughout the book she explains her life as a child and how she went to school. I would have liked a little more personality in the book considering it was an autobiography. I loved the chapter where she explains how a white man treated her as a normal girl and not as an african american girl. She explains in a later chapter all about her arrest. She talks about how the officers forced her off of the bus and took her to a cell. Rosa states the process of how she joined NAACP and how she was a youth leader and a secretary. In chapter ten she writes how she helped lift the segregation law and her journey in helping. She talks about how she moved to Detroit and got her own apartment. In the last chapter she talks about all of her accomplishments and she sums up her life. This book was very great and super inspirational. I would highly recommend this book to anyone for research of just to read for pleasure.
